The Vinyl Frontier of bootleg concept albums

vinyl

Those lovable rogues at Beat Boot-Ique (a mashup music community-cum-blog) have put together a marvellous SF film-themed bootleg concept album… Tis called The Vinyl Frontier - Vol.1 - Mashups From Outta Space, and you can download a rar folder of it in its entirety from BBI. It features some lovely tunes, including a couple by Bristol’s own Juxtaposeur (WoBcast/Eclectic Kettle)… I don’t want to spoil the surprise by explaining about each track individually, because it really is an audio journey ;) and worth going through it all the way rather than cherry-picking individual tunes. If you want commentary, check the BBI album notes, or this GYBO thread.

By way of a taster, though, here’s ‘That Chewie Tune’ by Guv’nor:

Do your bit for science and shit

the milky muthafucking way

If you are bored, then you can help scientists classify galaxies. I think everyone should do at least 20 galaxies each, this is the internet at it’s coolest

Online Help Sought to Organize Galaxies
By RAPHAEL G. SATTER, Associated Press Writer

Thu Jul 12, 2:05 AM

LONDON - Scientists need help sorting through an unusual digital photo album: pictures of about 1 million galaxies.

They are asking volunteers on the Internet to help classify the galaxies as either elliptical or spiral and note, where possible, in which direction they rotate. It would be the largest galactic census ever compiled, something scientists say would provide new insight into the structure of the universe.

“We’re in the golden era of astronomy,” said Bob Nichol, an astronomer at the University of Portsmouth in southern England. “We have more data than we can assimilate, and we need help.”

Astronomers say computer programs have been unable to reliably classify the star systems.

Without volunteers, researchers would need years to wade through the photographs, which were taken automatically by a massive digital camera mounted onto a telescope at the Apache Point Observatory near Sunspot, N.M., Nichol said. With 10,000 to 20,000 people working to classify the galaxies, the process could take as little as a month.

Volunteers would sign on to the Web site, complete a brief tutorial and pick through one galaxy after another. The galaxies would be identified by several people to guard against errors and pranks, and scientists would rule on any disputes.

The catalog would help researchers understand how galaxies form and interact.

“At some level, what we learn about these galaxies could tell us something quite fundamental about cosmology and particle physics,” Nichol said.

The project was inspired by similar projects at NASA, such as Stardust(at)home, which enlisted the help of thousands of volunteers to sift through grains of space dust gathered during a 2006 mission

Make your own footswitch for Ableton etc

for programs like Ableton Live, you can program effects and loops etc and control it live using just a knackered old keyboard and a screwdriver. very useful for live performance assisted by your puter
